Faloon ruled out of Ulster’s crunch clash

A TRAINING accident has ruled Willie Faloon out of Ulster’s do-or-die Magners League clash against the in-form Dragons tonight.

Faloon slipped and fell on his shoulder while training last week and has failed to recover for a game in which Ulster must claim at least a loser’s bonus point to reach the semi-finals.

Although Ulster are without four internationals due to an assortment of injuries, coach Brian McLaughlin is able to recall Ireland’s Tom Court, and Declan Fitzpatrick who fills in for Springbok BJ Botha at tight-head.
